A single-paged set of instructions and grading system for a mitosis project are laid out for your life science learners. (Note that the page is repeated, making this a two-page document.) Pairs of beginning biologists use clay to model...

Some genetic conditions occur without being inherited. The distinction becomes the focus of the lesson. It details the process of cell division that results in trisomy on various chromosomes. A worksheet highlights the results including...

Pregnant women exposed to PAH air pollution increase the risk of obesity in their children. The example of epigenetics, along with others, builds the basis for understanding the process of cell differentiation. Scholars view a video,...

Cells divide by one of two processes, either mitosis or meiosis. Scholars sort cards into two sets, one representing each type of cell division. Then, they sequence the cards demonstrating an understanding of the movement of chromosomes.

After initial exposure to a carcinogen, a cancer diagnosis often takes more than a decade due to the slow buildup of mutated cells in the body. Scholars learn about the biology of cancer with a worksheet and discussion questions. They...

Use this series of images depicting the process of mitosis in the early embryo of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster to make a mitosis flipbook. In this stage of Drosophila development, nuclei divide very rapidly without cell...

Review, identify, and describe the important steps in the cell reproduction of whitefish, onion root, and lily anther, and quiz yourself on the similarities and differences between mitosis and meiosis. A "Cell Division Construction Kit"...

Online mitosis activity offers the student the opportunity to identify, classify, calculate, and graph the phases of mitosis. Explanations of each phase, actual cells are displayed for classifying and gathering data in this comprehensive...

An informational text about mitosis and its role in reproduction. A question sheet is available to help students build skills in reading comprehension.

This interactive site provides animations and activities in several areas of physiology. The images are simple, but clear. The accompanying text provides a good description of the process being shown.
